# Celtic: Howe spotted Hoops house-hunting

**Eddie Howe has been spotted house-hunting in Glasgow ahead of his proposed move to Celtic.**

That’s according to Scottish musician Jon Fratelli, reported by [The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6932022/celtic-howe-spotted-house-hunting-glasgow/amp/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter), who shared the news on Wednesday.

Howe, 43, was thought to be searching around the area close to where Neil Lennon and Rangers boss Steven Gerrard live.

Talking to [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/), relayed by [The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6932022/celtic-howe-spotted-house-hunting-glasgow/amp/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter), Fratelli said:

> “He’s been spotted house-hunting in the street next to mine, I can exclusively reveal.
>
> “On the next street down, Steven Gerrard and Neil Lennon have been living across from each other.
>
> “It’s one of those neighbourhoods. I would see Neil Lennon around a lot. Steven Gerrard, I would see once or twice, but that’s literally the next street down.”

### Howe worry emerges

The [Daily Mail’s chief football reporter, Sam Mokbel](https://twitter.com/SamiMokbel81_DM/status/1379880392627515394), also shared an update on Howe’s proposed move north on Wednesday, and it’s not such good news.

[Mokbel](https://twitter.com/SamiMokbel81_DM/status/1379880392627515394) was given a comment by Howe’s representative and was told that talks of any deal being close are ‘extremely premature’.

### Transfer Tavern take

The comments from Howe’s representatives could be due to certain assurances needing to be met before putting pen to paper.

For example, [The Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/14561258/celtic-eddie-howe-confirm-manager-bournemouth/) reported on Tuesday that the former Bournemouth boss wants to bring Cherries ally Richard Hughes with him to Glasgow.

Both parties are also [reluctant to rush negotiations](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/14561258/celtic-eddie-howe-confirm-manager-bournemouth/), which, we feel, is the right decision.

However, with Howe spotted house-hunting in Glasgow, that can only be a positive thing ahead of being confirmed as the man to potentially lead a Parkhead rebuild.
